Which of the above compounds form pairs of metamers?

Answer

When two or more compounds have same molecular formula but different alkyl groups on either side of the functional group, the compounds are called metameres. In the given structures V and VI or VI and VII form a pair of metameres because alkyl groups are different on either side of the functional group -0.,

  1. $\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}

  2. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}

and

  1. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3${Metameres}

  2. $\text{CH}_3-\text{O}-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3$(Metameres}
